Big believer in the rule of law and three coequal branches of government.
Can’t change the fact that I’m a boomer. I can live with it as the wisdom (such as it is) from years of mistakes is fine.
My motto: Better living through sarcasm

Vice President JD Vance Friday on X:
“Jimmy Kimmel wasn’t funny, his ratings were in the toilet, and his advertisers were revolting. Also the bellyaching from the left over ‘free speech’ after the Biden years fools precisely no one.”
I am waiting to see proof of free speech being infringed by Biden

Rerunning that old (now unfunny) soviet era joke:
Stalin, Khrushchev, Brezhnev are on a train. Train stops moving.
Stalin: “shoot the engineer!” Train still stuck.
NK: “rehabilitate the engineer!” Still stuck.
Brezhnev, pulling down the window shades: “Comrades! The train is moving!”

New, from me:
Trump just fired the head of the BLS, accusing her of rigging data.
The reality is that by shooting the messenger reporting on the negative effects of his economic policies, Trump pushed America further into banana republic territory.

Yet MAGA world still trusts and believes. I’ve got a bridge I’d like to sell them.
It’s fucking bizzaro world we’re living in where the President shares untruths on truth social, the justice department serves injustice, the department of education promotes ignorance, and the health department increases disease by undermining prevention.

A man who holds the title of President of the United States, who took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution, who then says he doesn’t know if he’d uphold the Constitution, is unfit to be president and should be removed.
